Dr. Erickson was born and raised in Ferndale. While growing up on a dairy farm and working with the animals, he decided that he wanted to become a veterinarian. He received his veterinary degree from Washington State University in 1990 and shortly thereafter started working at Kulshan.
Initially, Dr. Erickson practiced both large and small animal medicine. His love for surgery, however, led him to his current position which is primarily practicing small animal medicine with a special interest in anything surgical; particularly orthopedic (bone) surgery. His orthopedic endeavors include fracture repair and performing Tibial Tuberocity Advancements (TTA) to help dogs with cranial cruciate ligament injuries. He also serves as managing partner for Kulshan.
When he is not fixing pets, Kevin enjoys reading and spending time with his family; wife Robin (aka Dr. Eggenberger) and their three sons. He also spends time merging both his technical and creative sides on his computer and serves on the Ferndale School Board. Dr. Erickson also helps the family care for their two cats, Crystal & Brownie; a couple of pygmy goats, four ducks, two turkeys and several chickens.
